SENATE BILL: The Labor Rights Act (Law'd)

[Chancellor Tanterterg]

Just to give you all an idea, here is the compromise bill that the Assembly eventually agreed on:

I'd like to provide another prospective, having also been heavily involved in negotiating this compromise.  That was a compromise passed under a specific set of circumstances.  Honestly, I still have problems with section 3.  However, I supported the compromise because at the time it was half a loaf or no bread and the compromise was a big step forward (the unamended Labor Relations Act was awful).  But it was still imperfect and I think it would be better to pass a better law rather than using this an imperfect one as a template.

[Chancellor Tanterterg]

I would prefer the original version and will vote to override this veto.  That said, if the votes to override the veto aren't there, I'll reluctantly support this (half a loaf is better than no bread, after all).  I would also request that President Napoleon elaborate about what concerns he had with the scope of the original bill.

[Chancellor Tanterterg]

If Senator Snowstalker can't sponsor the bill anymore, is there any way I can do so on his behalf?  If so, I'd be happy to do so and would support an override.

[Chancellor Tanterterg]

What do I have to do for there to be a Veto override vote?  Whichever it is, that's the one I want to do

[Chancellor Tanterterg]

I withdraw the bill.

[Chancellor Tanterterg]

I withdraw the bill.

Jeez, what happened to the whole "step in the right direction" thing?

I also don't think this bill is the whole solution.  However, it will help and thus I'll support it.  I'd also support other measures, but I'm not going to vote against a good bill just because it doesn't include everything I'd like it to.  This is, in my view, a step in the right direction; it's not a solution by itself.

Doesn't apply to this bill?

I'm going to reintroduce it, as that is what I've been told is necessary to get it passed, even if there's a veto.  I do think this bill is a major part of the solution.  That said, if the bill is vetoed and an override fails, I'd support your version.  I hope that makes sense.

[Chancellor Tanterterg]

It makes sense to want to further ones political aims, I'm just puzzled why a proactive response to a small economic matter is taken yet be willing to take a retroactive, inch by inch approach to an issue where lives are at stake.

I'd be happy to discuss a comprehensive package of additional measures with you on gun control/mental health.  That and Senator HagridOfTheDeep's bill are not mutually exclusive.

I posted that several times. That comes at stage. We vote on the redraft and then when it fails, you can choose between to send it back to the President as is , when he vetoed it, then you could have requested an override.

It is also right here in italics:

'doh I take it that it is to late to vote on the redraft (and hopefully defeat it)?

[Chancellor Tanterterg]

Yes, it probably is.

Well, I guess that how you learn . I guess this will have to get passed again and all   When you say probably though are you implying it might not be to late?

[Chancellor Tanterterg]

Yes, it probably is.

After serving with Bacon King as PPT, and then Vice President, you tend to learn that anything goes procedurally, provided you can provide some kind of procedural finesse to justify it.

What would I need to do in this case?  I want to learn how to screw the rules too?

[Chancellor Tanterterg]

I will reintroduce the bill when I return to the Senate.

I already did   I was given incorrect info about which option to pursue, sorry guys

[Chancellor Tanterterg]

Lol

Don't worry, the original version will still get passed

[Chancellor Tanterterg]

Actually, Mr. PPT, I realized that you never gave a time limit for making my decision.  Given that fact, how can it be too late to say that the withdrawal was a tentative decision and my final decision was to vote on the redraft?

[Chancellor Tanterterg]

Time limits aren't provisioned for this procedure in the Consitution, and it isn't present in the OSPR at all. If it were, we would have had a problem when we had to change sponsors.

In other words, I can still make my final decision and take as much time as I want to make a final decision   My tentative decision was withdrawal, but my final decision is to have a vote on the redraft

[Chancellor Tanterterg]

Thanks Bacon King!  You are truly one of the greatest procedural experts and legal minds in Atlasia

[Chancellor Tanterterg]

Awaiting PPT NorthCarolinaYankee's response

[Chancellor Tanterterg]

Vote on redraft, so we can kill the redraft

[Chancellor Tanterterg]

NAY

[Chancellor Tanterterg]

Send to the President
